Key ideas

Money is not a man’s game

Kim argues that women have traditionally been taught to depend on a husband, family or the government for money. Speaking in 2023, she said the female investors she knows are very good at it, and that the gap is one of education, not ability.

Real estate as the foundation

Real estate is the core of her investing. She began investing in property in 1989, when interest rates were also high, and has built up from there to thousands of rental units, hotels, golf courses and commercial property.

Opportunity in uncertain times

In 2023 she argued that gloomy headlines make people feel trapped, but that difficult markets also create opportunities for anyone willing to learn, stay disciplined and act.

Pay yourself first and take action

The 2023 interview centred on two habits: paying yourself first, by setting money aside to invest before spending, and being willing to pull the trigger on a deal once you have done the work.
